Why TEAM iQ?

What are the top ten things you should consider before you choose your Online Training system?

We’ve compiled this easy to use list of questions that you should ask of any Online Training supplier.

1. Is it easy to use?

   This question is important from two perspectives. Firstly, how easy is it for trainees to use the training created on the system? Are the training screens clear and simple to follow? Is it always obvious what to do next? Or are the screens cluttered with a load of confusing buttons, menus and choices that will leave your trainees scratching their heads over what to do next?

   TEAM iQ training screens are carefully designed to be easy to use - it is always obvious what the trainee should to do next, and the screens are not cluttered with an array of confusing options.

   The second aspect to this question is how easy it is to actually create training on the system. Do you need any special computer skills or programming knowledge? Do you need to decipher and understand a whole lot of technical jargon?

   Creating Online Training with TEAM iQ is quick and easy to do. You don’t need any special computer skills or experience, or any knowledge or understanding of computer programming.

2. How long will it take to get started?

   Are you embarking on a major IT project? Is it going to take days, weeks or months to buy and set up any new equipment? How long will it take to install the software and then train everyone on how to use it?

   TEAM iQ is 100% online and browser based so you can get started right away. There is no software to download or install and no heavy IT project to wade through.

   Simply sign up for your free trial, and follow the on screen instructions to get started right away. You’ll be creating Online Training within minutes.

3. Can I try it out and actually use it for free?

   When you decide which system you might use, can you try it out for free? Not just take a quick look, but actually use it to create some real training and then get your customers or staff to actually use it?

   With TEAM iQ you can. Your first 30 days are a completely free, no obligation trial of the full system.

   In fact, if you’ve only got a little training requirement and you move fast, you can start now, create your training, train your people inside the 30 days, and then walk away owing us nothing. It really is that straight forward - your first 30 days are absolutely free and you only start to pay if you decide to carry on using the system.

4. What kind of contract will I have to get into?

   Once you decide on the Online Training system you want, what contractual commitment will you have to enter into before you are allowed to use it? Will you have to sign up to a minimum contract term? One year? Is there a minimum notice period before you can leave? 3 months? Is there a minimum monthly charge? $500 a month?

   With TEAM iQ you don’t have to make any contractual commitment.

   You just use the TEAM iQ system month to month. And if you choose to carry on using it at the end of the month, then you just pay for the month you used. You can choose to stop using it any time, and walk away owing us nothing.

   And there is no minimum charge. You only pay for the number of active users you maintain on the system. If that’s only you, then you only pay for the one user.

5. What if I don’t like it?

   If you sign up with any other system, thinking it’s the one for you, then what happens if you later find its not quite all you thought it would be? Can you walk away? Will you have to pay for the remainder of the contract term? Or, if you’ve already paid, will you get any money back? Some suppliers do actually promise a refund if you are not happy...

   At TEAM iQ you don’t get a refund. You don’t get any money back. That’s because you don’t pay anything up front, so there is nothing to refund. You use the system first, and you only have to pay at the end of the month if you choose to carry on using it - so you are always in pocket - ahead of the game. You never risk a cent with us. Use the system, then pay if you choose to stay. Safe as houses.

6. What does it cost?

   What does it cost to use the other system? How much for the software? What other modules do you need to buy? How much for installation? How much for your training? How much a year for customer support? And are there any other hidden charges? How many people are allowed to create Online Training on the system?

7. Can trainees simply ‘skip’ through the content?

   The whole point of Online Training is to train your people, right? Then why do other Online Training systems let trainees simply skip through the content - without even watching the movies, hearing what the trainer has to say or answering the questions? Amazing, but true!

   With TEAM iQ, trainees must work through all the content in the order it is presented, they cannot just ‘skip’ through sections they have not done, or ignore Modules they don’t want to do. Once a trainee has been through a TEAM iQ Online Training course, you know they’ve actually done it.

   Of course, once the trainee has completed the training, or any Sections or Modules within it, then they can jump back and forth around the completed content, repeat any bits they are uncertain of or just want to be reminded about.

8. Can you be sure that the trainees have understood the training?

   When you consider any other Online Training system you need to ask the question: Can I be sure that the trainee has actually understood the training? That it actually sunk in?

   With TEAM iQ you can be sure. When you set up your interactive question and answer sessions, you can apply a setting that automatically replays any related content if they get the question wrong. And you can set it to do this again and again, until they get it right. That way, when you see that they’ve done the training, you know they got the point, and you can prove it.

9. Can you pre-screen the need for training content?

   Does the other system you are considering allow you to pre-screen the need for training content using an online training needs assessment, and only put the trainee through those areas of the training where they are unable to demonstrate an understanding?

   TEAM iQ lets you do this - using pre-training questions to appraise a trainee’s understanding, and automatically skipping past any subsequent content that they have already demonstrated an understanding for.

   This way your trainees don’t waste time doing any unnecessary training, and they get back to productive work sooner.

10. Does it include a Learning Management System (‘LMS’)?

    Does the other system include an online Learning Management System (at no extra cost!) that allows you to assign and manage the training needs and requirements across your team?

    TEAM iQ does, making it a quick and easy matter to assign training to individuals or whole teams of staff at a go, and providing immediate access to management information on who has completed their training and who has not.
